Time seems to fly faster than Superman. Already it’s March. It’s funny, we tend to measure time not by what we’ve achieved and created, but by what we haven’t done. Already it’s March and I haven’t joined a gym. I haven’t organised internet in my house (hence the sparse moments of connecting with my cyber world through work). I haven’t been writing my novels. I haven’t created those travel blogs I wanted to, nor have I booked my holiday for Easter (possibly leaving it a teensy bit too late, come to think of it).
And yet, if I looked at all I have achieved this year, in less than 3 months, maybe things would look brighter, particualrly as the sun has decided to go into hiding from the ugly bad storm floating around in the skies. Of course, it’s risky looking over achievements, there’s always the possibility it may be a short and bitter list.
SO what have I accomplished in 10 weeks?
I started a new job and made new friends. I found a place to live. I’ve been to Poland and have book tickets to Cardiff, as well as slowly started to organise about 7 trips for this year. I’ve blown way too much money and shovelled msyelf further into debt. I’ve started paying off said debt. I’ve developed a new unhealthy addiction which puts a broad smile on my face every day, as well as increasing my collection of DVD’s i love but haven’t watched yet. I’ve developed new music tastes, started some new wonderful friendships with people I love, and made a whole new set of resolutions which I still have 9 months to make or break.
Well, now I can happily switch off my computer and go home with a smile on my face. What a set of accomplishments in only 10 weeks!
